“The most important predictor of happiness is earned success.”
Simple Trading With Excel.
We use Microsoft Excel as a Primary Tool to trade with.
Our method of trading is simple. We trade only one market (the emini S&P or the micro emini S&P). We use Microsoft Excel to provide us with visual signals and trend confirmations, and momentum indicators.
We trade using 35 minute bar data from e-Signal. (We use the “tabular data” on eSignal as a data source.) That data is recorded in an Excel spreadsheet in a timely manner, calculations are updated, and trades are entered and exited through Interactive Brokers when appropriate called for at the 35 minute intervals on our spreadsheet during the days and weeks of market activity.
On average, we trade about 5-8 times a month, and do hold trades overnight. At times during the last 4 years, the volatility has gotten so unruly that we were forced to NOT hold trades overnight (as a risk management choice). But before that and up to the present time, except during times of extreme volatility, we hold trades overnight.
Please see our ARCHIVES. And note the visual nature of our posts. Those are the tools that we use daily.
